The lady of Chongxi has supernatural powers and is favored by the powerful official

Hearing what the Marquis' wife said, Shu Yuhe almost fell to her knees.

If Qingyu hadn't supported her, no, lifted her arm, she might have really kneeled down.

But fortunately, after being mentioned by Qingyu, she bowed with some trepidation:

"Meet Madam Hou."

Qingyu also hurriedly bowed:

"Madam, young madam."

Hearing Qingyu calling her Madam, Shu Yuhe almost bowed again, but Gu Ruoxi stepped forward and took her other arm:

"mother."

Oh, that’s right, the young lady is my daughter.

But Shu Yuhe stayed here for one night last night and felt uneasy.

Although this is now her home and the place that belongs to her, she still doesn't have that sense of belonging.

A person who had not been taken care of for more than thirty years was suddenly dressed in fine clothes and fed with delicious food, with many servants around her. She felt quite uneasy.

After Gu Ruoxi supported her mother, she could still feel her mother shaking slightly.

Gu Ruoxi wanted to liven up the atmosphere. After helping her mother sit down, she stood in front of her mother and turned around:

"Mom, do you think I look pretty? This is the new dress my mother-in-law picked for me. There are many sets, and each one is different."

Shu Shi could only really relax when facing her daughter. Squinting her eyes, she looked at her daughter dressed up like a fairy.

"Beautiful, beautiful, you must be obedient and be filial to the Marquis's wife."

Xie Qingrou smiled and said:

"Xi'er is very good, I like her very much, you taught her very well."

Xie Qingrou did not sit on the other side, but smiled at Qingyu and said:

"Qingyu, you should stay here with Madam Shu for a few days. Wait until the manor sends back a new batch of people and sends a few more people to work for Madam Shu, then you can come back."

"Yes, ma'am."

Shu Yuhe said hurriedly:

"No, no, I...I can do it myself."

Gu Ruoxi knew that not only herself but also her mother needed to learn some things in order to maintain this reputation.

"Mom, Sister Qingyu is very capable, you just need to listen to Sister Qingyu and Aunt Ying. I can't come to accompany you every day, because I still have to study with my mother-in-law, and Sister Qingqiu is also by my side to accompany me."

"Mom, we both have a lot to learn. Don't forget, the prince said that you will be the only one in my family from now on. If you can't hold it together, who will protect me if someone bullies me?"

"We couldn't break free before, but now we are all out. You don't need to learn anything else, you have to learn to be a capable mistress of the house, so that you can take good care of me again."

Xie Qingrou was listening to Gu Ruoxi's words with a smile in her eyes. This girl was right. She knew what she should do.

Xie Qingrou came here to build a good relationship with Shu Yuhe. So she stepped forward and took Shu Yuhe's arm:

"I've never been to this yard before. Let's go out and take a walk around the yard."

The Marquis's wife was not at all arrogant and she personally held Shu's arm as she walked. Gu Ruoxi naturally held her mother's other arm.

The Marquis's wife glanced behind her, and the rest of the people were stopped by Nanny Yang, leaving only Qingqiu, Qingyu and Jiuhuan following behind them.

They were slowly learning to get along with each other. But Nangong Yu, who was left behind, was not having such an easy time.

As soon as he entered the study and sat down, Mo Yi came over and said:

"Sir, the old marquis's wife is asking you to open the door at Wutong Courtyard, and..."

He didn't say anything, he just glanced at the prince. What else could Nangong Yu not understand? What else could it be? He just cursed.

Nangong Yu's eyes turned three points colder. If it weren't for the fact that she was the Marquis' biological mother, Nangong Yu really didn't want to respect her as an elder.

"Call someone to carry me over to have a look."

Since my mother is not around, I naturally have to go and take a look. If the old lady really makes trouble, the maids and servants in Wutong Courtyard will not be able to stop her.

Qingyi was not there, so Moyi took charge and carried Nangong Yu from Chaohui Courtyard to Wutong Courtyard, where they saw the two opposing sides in a tense situation.

On one side were the people brought by the old lady, and on the other side were the servants from Wutong Courtyard brought by Qinglan.

These maids all had weapons in their hands. Some had brooms, some had feather dusters, and one even had a fire stick.

The old lady naturally would not take part in the incident herself, but she just stared at the closed door of Wutong Courtyard with a gloomy face.

Yes, the door was closed and these girls were standing outside the door.

Qinglan stood at the front, and the maids and servants behind her all stood straight.

After what happened yesterday, they knew how to protect Wutong Courtyard.

The maids and servants of the old marquis' wife only dared to bluff and say:

"Open the door, the old lady wants to see the Marquis' wife."

"I told you, the Marquis's wife is not here. She left early this morning. You can go ask the old woman guarding the second gate. Old Marquis's wife, please go back."

Qinglan said that since the Marquis's wife was not at home, these people did not dare to break in. Some of them even quietly looked up to see if there was anyone else hiding in the tree.

Yesterday, that man lost the concubine twice and the old lady once. He didn't even give the old lady face. A servant like me would not be lost. He would definitely be beaten out.

So, they also have to weigh it.

Nangong Yu, who happened to be carried over, said:

"Madam, my mother is definitely not here. Why did you come to see her?"

The old marquis's wife looked over coldly. Without saying anything, the housekeeper, Madam Xiao, who was standing beside the old marquis's wife, glanced at her and stood up and said:

"The old marquis's wife sent someone to tell her this morning to kneel down in the ancestral hall as punishment. But she didn't go, so the old marquis's wife came to invite her in person."

Nangong Yu widened his eyes. Was this really giving them face?

He even punished his mother by making her kneel in the ancestral hall.

Nangong Yu raised his hand, and his guards moved the chair.

Nangong Yu said coldly:

"It seems that the old lady feels better after a night's sleep? Are you still thinking of punishing my mother by making her kneel in the ancestral hall?"

Madam Xiao glanced at the old lady again and replied for her once again:

"Sir, yesterday the Marquis's wife ordered the servants to carry the old lady out of Wutong Courtyard. This was extremely disrespectful to the old lady. The old lady was frightened and had a fever in the middle of the night. This was the Marquis's wife's fault. According to the rules of the Nangong family, this is unfilial..."

Nangong Yu laughed and interrupted Nanny Xiao and said:

"Unfilial? Are you trying to label my mother as unfilial? Madam, why don't you dare say a word? Let a maid speak for you? Were you shocked and speechless yesterday?"

The old marquis’ wife was so angry that she raised her finger and pointed at Nangong Yu, and leaned heavily on her cane:

"It was indeed the daughter of the Xie family who taught me this. She has corrupted all the descendants of the Nangong family."

Nangong Yu said coldly:

"Yes, it's not as good as what you teach in the Zhu family. Fighting and playing with birds in the brothel every day."

"you you……"

The two maids hurriedly supported the old marquis' wife who was so angry that she couldn't stand steadily. Madam Xiao frowned and said:

"Prince, this is your grandmother!"

"Ah!"
